Why Are Dental Implants the Right Choice for Me?

Dental implants are designed to replace both the crown (the white portion) and the root of the tooth. Other treatment options only bother with the crown. A new tooth root helps to prevent the deterioration of the jawbone over time, which is better for both your oral health and your facial appearance.

Teeth restored with dental implants function just like nature intended, and that means you can eat all your favorite foods and brush and floss like normal without restraint.

In appearance, dental implants are virtually indistinguishable from the rest of your smile. You might not even be able to tell the difference between them over time.

Dental implants are built to last, and they can serve patients well for 20 years, 30 years, or even the rest of your life.

The Dental Implant Process

After our team has determined that you’re a good candidate for dental implants, the first step of treatment is the surgical placement of the implants into the jawbone. When this step is complete, you begin on a months-long healing process; during this time, your body’s natural instincts take over as the oral tissue and bone form around the implants, creating a solid foundation.

Finally, it is time to return to Sage Dental Care so that we can design and place the ideal restoration on top of the implants. All-ceramic dental crowns are recommended for individual implants, while a customized, implant-retained bridge or denture can cover multiple implants at once in a more cost-effective manner.

All-On-4/Teeth-in-a-Day

When a patient has experienced the loss of all the natural teeth along the top or bottom arch of the mouth (or both), their overall quality of life can be dramatically reduced. What’s worse is that the loss of jawbone density over time can make traditional implant treatment very difficult. Thankfully, our two Reno, NV office locations offer All-On-4 as a worthwhile alternative. Like the name implies, All-On-4 requires the placement of just four implants into the jawbone at strategic positions, which eliminates the need for costly, time-consuming grafting procedures in most cases. Better yet, an implant-retained denture can be placed on the very same day, which saves you from having to be without the strong, capable smile you need.
